A Few Questions About J-13 Answered. Maybe.

There have been a number of questions raised over the J-13 assassination attempt.  In the last couple of days, some answers have come forth.

1)  There were at least 2 rifles fired during the episode.  Were there two assassins?

No.  The FBI says that two different counter-sniper teams fired at the assassin.

2)   It seems that radio comms warning of the assassin were ignored.  Why?

Actually, many of the radios were NOT on the same channel, thus 'complete security team' announcements could not be made.

3)  Is the Secret Service that incompetent?

Due to Cheeto-Guard's denials of additional trained agents for Trump over a period of months and an event featuring "Dr." Jill Biden nearby, many of Trump's security/guards were NOT trained USSS agents.  They came from Homeland "Security."

...The whistleblowers revealed that they were not patrolling the perimeter with canines as they were supposed to do, leaving huge gaps in security.

Whistleblowers also revealed that people were allowed into the grounds unchecked. There was no monitoring of who was getting up around the stage.

Hawley also discovered that law enforcement officers were on different communication channels and weren’t coordinated. He believes someone needs to resign over this disaster....

That's what the FBI, some whistleblowers, and the locals told Sen. Hawley, anyway.  

I'll trust the whistleblowers and the locals.  Do you believe the FBI's findings?

(Quoting Sen. Hawley)

... the FBI has got more security on that site now than they did the night that Trump was shot at. A little late. I mean, the FBI, totally late. They’re trying to control the information. Sean, they tried to kick me off of the site. They said, ‘Get out of here. You shouldn’t be on the site. We don’t want you here. Get out of here.’

They are trying to control the information. Absolutely. They brought local cops, Sean. Get this, I’m there on site. I had permission from the local security operator to be there, and the FBI came out and said, ‘You have got to leave. We do not want you here.’ That’s what they’re trying to do.

You be the judge. 

N.B: a good deal of thoughtful analysis is here.
